"Old Bones"... by tellefella

"Old Bones"...

this old prime mover has been sitting in this paddock for years...much has been removed from it over time... leaving nothing but it's old bare bones...
Great shot, love the tones of the rust and the bramble inside the cab...wonder what it would look like in B&W?

I like it in color....shows the rust better and hunts at the original glory

Such a lovely cool sky complimenting the warm rust colours. What mileage this old timer must have travelled. It's still got character & appeal !

At least it has value in life still - it makes for a great photo shot :)

Wonderful capture and contrast of colors :)

Lovely shot, such character in these old vehicles, but a bit sad that it has been abandoned. Great pov and capture.

Oh so cool....you got an old rusty bucket too! Love it. It always amazes me that people leave them out in fields...I guess just to let them rust and be an art form. Nice shot John.

Great shot...anything rusty including cars & bridges always looks good for photo

I thought I had commented on this - Anyway, lovely shot John. I wonder what make it was? An old Bedford or a Commer perhaps? Now there's a couple of makes the young turks will never had heard about.

Just googled it and I'll bet it was a Commer
